Please vote against UKIP and the Tory bastards

Posted on June 6, 2017 by Wichita Lineman Was A Song I Once Heard

Look, I know there’s nothing more tiresome than blogging a condescending plea, on top of being bombarded by all those fucking tweets begging you to vote, especially if you believe, and justifiably in some cases, that it won’t change much … Continue reading →
